The outcome is structural steel savings for your next project.Īs the cost of structural steel continues to increase, the impact of reducing the quantity of supports on a projects can offset the cost of the cable ladder system all together. To achieve a lower total installed cost, Eaton’s engineers developed an innovative means to significantly reduce the number of structural steel supports needed in cable ladder installations, without diminishing the load carrying capacity of the system. Cable tray shall be permitted to be used as a support system for service conductors, feeders, branch circuits, communications circuits, control. At the time it was approved, the Cable Tray Section was composed of the following members: Cablofil, Inc. A unit or assembly of units or sections and associated fittings forming a structural system used to securely fasten or support cables and raceways. When assessing a project for the lowest total installed cost, Eaton recommends focusing on four key design considerations longer straight section spans, fitting support locations, vertical adjustable support locations, and thermal expansion support locations.Įaton’s B-Line series metallic cable ladder systems are designed to provide superior strength to weight ratio while providing a lower total installed cost. toward promoting safety of persons and property by the proper selection and use of metal cable tray systems.
Transformers, Regulators and Grid AutomationĮxtensive laboratory testing has enabled the Eaton B-Line series cable ladder to meet and exceed the National Electrical Manufacturer’s Association (NEMA) VE-2 support recommendations for cable ladder installations.Safety, security and emergency communications.
